Angry T/A Headlight problem !! Help !!



For some reason my right headlight cover has started getting hung on the hood when its trying to raise.

I've had the car for over a year .... and its never done that. All the lines looked straight and everything. I think somebody might've bumped it or something but there is no visable damage.

Is there a way to adjust the headlight or the hood?

I thought it was the motor at first but then I went and looked at it .. it tries to raise and gets stuck on the hood.. and its scratching my damn paint!

TIA,

::Austin::

the headlight covers have just enough to play with in order to align it, if you losen the screws you can move it side to side I noticed that when I did the temp fix
